Activity

For #1 and #3 we should use UserPreferences to make those settings persistent for each user.

For #4 we generally need to export all records and not the current page only. This means that a proper request must be done to the server. No much jquery involved here but a standard exporting icon embedded in the form widget would be nice.

#2 what do you mean for this?

for #1 and #3, I mean user can take such actions directly in table (not hard coded in form or configured in user preference). Let's say, by default, user can see a list form with 5 columns, A, B, C, D, E. But user can hide A and C or show F, G which might be another two fields but not shown by default.
Please take a look at the grid implementation in http://www.sencha.com/products/js/

For #4, I agree with you. Maybe the better way is to have some options for export feature: full export or just export current page

It seems that I didn't make things clear. Sorry for that.

For #2, user can group rows by any column. You can find such feature in the ext grid: http://www.sencha.com/products/js/
thanks,

Hi Michael,
for #1 and #3 I understand what you mean and I agree. The UserPreferences should be used so that in a user hides column A, shows column F and then leaves the application, these settings are automatically retrieved whenever he gets back to that form.

OK than

Looks good at 1st glance, we are embedding more and more Betas... On the other hand we have the source anyway...

BTW, I think that when we make a choice about a jQuery plugin we should exchange more and argue why it's the best if when there are concurrents. I don't say that specifically for this case, it seems we will need more an more of them...

Yes we definitively need to exchange more before starting using anything.

Also something we could be interested by is endless scrolling . I know there are some detractors (want bookmarks for instance) and it's not good in all cases...
